GE DS200TCPDG1BCC / BEC | Reliable DC Power Distribution Board

Product Description

The GE DS200TCPDG1BCC and DS200TCPDG1BEC Power Distribution Boards are advanced modules developed for the Mark V Speedtronic Turbine Control System. They efficiently distribute regulated DC power across turbine control subsystems while providing reliable communication pathways for critical control and instrumentation signals. Moreover, these modules incorporate later revision enhancements (BCC/BEC) that improve durability, compatibility, and performance under industrial conditions. Therefore, they are ideal for harsh turbine environments where vibration, electrical noise, and continuous operation demand robust and precise power management. In addition, both boards support dual and triple modular redundancy (TMR), ensuring uninterrupted operation in high-reliability turbine systems.
